help me decide(with picts)
Well now that Im boosted my engine bay gats way too hot!Even running the fan on a manuel switch doesnt really seem to help much in trafic.
Ok.I think I want a carbon fiber hood with vents.NOT A SCOP.Is this ricey?Im doing it for function and form.
what to choose?

I think a really big wing would help out alot. :P
I would think of something else to lower underhood temps.

Well Im going to be getting a Flexalite or Permacool fan but with the I.C up front it seems like it slows down the airflow regardless.Im just looking at imrpoving airflow

Re:help me decide(with picts)
I think they all look like ***, but that's just my worthless opinion. :P If you're going to get a CF hood, just get one with no scoops, but I guess that defeats the purpose of you buying the hood in the first place. I would rig some vent pipes to bring air into the engine bay. I know you can work magic with PVC. Kinda like how they do it in Nascar.
You could also get some Z3 fenders. That would help cool things down. I think Danny might sell you his. :P
